What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 4, 4:23 AM CDT, 3 hours 46 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 4, 4:23 AM CDT, 3 hours 46 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
423 AM CDT WED JUN 4 2008

.DISCUSSION...
ADVECTION SHOWERS WITH EMBEDDED THUNDER SPREADING EWRD EARLY THIS
MORNING. LOOKS LIKE MUCH OF THE CWA SHOULD BE ABLE TO SQUEEZE OUT
MEASURABLE PRECIP. SHOULD DRY OUT FOR A TIME LATER THIS MORNING
INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON AS BEST MID LEVEL FORCING SLIDES EAST OF
THE AREA...HOWEVER CONVOLUTED MOIST WRLY FLOW MAKES IT HARD TO
COMPLETELY DISCOUNT SHOWERS ANYWHERE DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE
DAY. NOT ANTICIPATING MUCH IN THE WAY OF SUNSHINE TODAY AS SFC
HEATING WOULD MOSTLY BE SELF DESTRUCTIVE PROVIDED THE ABUNDANCE OF
SFC MOISTURE...WITH THE EXCEPTION POSSIBLY IN THE WEST.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT NON EXISTENT THROUGH THE EARLY
AFTERNOON...BUT MAY HAVE TO WATCH WRN AREAS LATER THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING. MOISTURE AND TEMPERATURE ADVECTION IN THE LOWEST
LEVELS AND SOME OF DRYING IN THE 700 TO 500 MB LAYER SHOULD DESTABILIZE
THE ATMOSPHERE ENOUGH BY LATE AFTERNOON FOR THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT...ESPECIALLY IN PLACES WHICH DO SEE A BIT OF SUNSHINE.
SHOULD TIMING BE RIGHT WITH S/WV PASSAGE...ENHANCEMENT OF CONVECTION
CAN BE EXPECTED. NAM AND GFS DIFFER ON THE EXTENT OF CAPE WITH THE
GFS YIELDING MORE ROBUST MU CAPE VALUES THIS AFTERNOON...ALTHOUGH ML
CAPES ARE SOMEWHAT SIMILAR IN THE 800 TO 1400 J/KG RANGE BY 00Z THIS
EVENING IN THE JAMES VALLEY WEST. DEEP LAYER DIRECTION SHEAR DOES
SUPPORT THE POTENTIAL FOR SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS IN THESE AREA LATE
TODAY INTO EARLY EVENING...HOWEVER BUFKIT SOUNDINGS INDICATED TALL
SKINNY CAPE...WHICH DOES NOT SUPPORT VIGOROUS UPDRAFTS. SO...MAINLY
THINKING MARGINAL SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HAIL
IN THE LOW END SEVERE RANGE. ONE OTHER THING TO WATCH WILL BE THE
POTENTIAL FOR LANDSPOUTS WITH THESE STORMS. PROGGED 2 KM VGP VALUES
IN THE .1 TO .4 RANGE AND LAPSE RATES AROUND 7 DEG/KM. SHOULD THERE
BE ENOUGH SURFACE HEATING...WHICH REMAINS A QUESTION AT THIS
TIME...THEN A FEW LANDSPOUTS ARE CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY.

BETTER CHANCES FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WILL BE LATER TONIGHT AND
THEN AGAIN LATE THU AFTERNOON INTO THU EVENING. STRONG ELEVATED WARM
FRONT WILL MOVE NORTH ACROSS THE CWA AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.
THUNDERSTORMS ARE ANTICIPATED TO DEVELOP ALONG THIS FRONT WITH SOME
STORMS LIKELY BECOMING SEVERE. MAIN SEVERE THREAT WITH THESE
ELEVATED STORMS WILL HAIL TO THE SIZE OF GOLF BALLS...AND POSSIBLY
LARGER. THESE STORM SHOULD MOVE FROM THE SRN CWA AROUND
MIDNIGHT...TO THE NRN EXTEND OF THE CWA TOWARDS SUNRISE. THEN
GENERALLY SHOULD SEE A BREAK IN THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY LATER IN
THE MORNING AND INTO MID AFTERNOON. SET UP FOR LATE THU
AFTERNOON/EVENING IS A POTENTIALLY VOLATILE ONE. SEVERE THREAT WILL
LARGELY DEPEND ON PLACEMENT OF UPPER TROUGH AND SFC WARM FRONT.
MODELS HAVING DIFFERENT IDEAS ON PLACEMENT AND TIMING BUT LIKELY
THERE WILL BE HIGH THREAT OF SEVERE WX ALONG AND EAST OF I29 AND
POSSIBLY AS FAR WEST AS THE WRN CWA BORDER. VERY LARGE
HAIL...DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...AND STRONG TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE.
THE MAIN TORNADO THREAT WILL BE ALONG THE SFC WARM FRONT...WHICH AT
THIS TIME IS EXPECTED TO BE DRAPED ACROSS SE SD AND SW MN. WILL ALSO
HAVE TO MONITOR THE FLOOD POTENTIAL WITH THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT AND
AGAIN TOMORROW.

THINGS DRY OUT ON FRIDAY AND STRONG COLD FRONT PUSHES EAST OF THE
AREA. MODELS HAVE SHIFTED UPPER LOW FARTHER NORTH...SO LOWER THE
CHANCES FOR POP FRI MORNING. RESIDUAL MOISTURE AND COOLER
TEMPERATURES ALOFT...COULD SEE SOME SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
LATE IN THE DAY FRI. OTHERWISE OVERALL WET WX PATTERN TO CONTINUE
INTO THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

MINOR TO MODERATE FLOODING IS EXPECTED ALONG PORTIONS OF THE
VERMILLION RIVER THE NEXT FEW DAY. RAINS FROM THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS...WHICH COULD BE CAUSE FOR
CONTINUED OR ADDITIONAL FLOODING.

ARE EXPECTED TO REDEVELOP ACROSS EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA IN THE
